PENGEMBANGAN INSTRUMEN ASESMEN UNTUK MENDETEKSI PENGALAMAN TRAUMATIS PENYINTAS ERUPSI GUNUNG BERAPI
Abstract: Volcano eruption was
one kind of disaster which could cause psychological problems among its
survivors. Traumatic experience particularly was one of three determinant
factors which increases risk of psychological problems after disaster. Hence, a
rapid assessment instrument of survivors’ traumatic experience could examine
vulnerability of survivors, so that an effective intervention could be done for
them. The study aims to develop rapid assessment instrument for Merapi eruption
survivors namely Traumatic Experience’s Checklist. Concurrent validity of the
instrument is tested for trauma which is known as one of the most common
psychological problems after disaster. A number of 66 survivors participated in
this study with age above 21 years old. Subjects were divided into three zones:
victim, endangered, and evacuated zone. Data were collected using Traumatic
Experience’s Checklist for measuring traumatic experience and Harvard Trauma
Questionnaire (HTQ) for measuring trauma. Pearson’s product moment analysis was
used in the study analysis. The result showed that the instrument is valid and
has significant positive correlation with trauma (r= .487; p< .001).
Zonation also showed a significant ability to differentiate the level of trauma
among survivors. Further discussion and study is needed to find the best rapid
assessment method to predict psychological problems among volcano eruption
survivors.
